Lynn Harris

Lynn was my boss at CHP from 1995-99, and we continued to get together for lunch for a couple years after that. Two days ago I decided that I'd been "meaning to" look her up and reconnect for long enough, and that it was high time to actually do it. This morning I was faced with the sad news that I had waited too long.

To say that Lynn made an indelible impact on my life is an understatement. In fact, there are "Lynn-isms" that I still think of and try to aspire to today.

Lynn Harris was a colleague of mine at CHP. She was smart, beautiful and a great patient advocate. I was saddened to learn about her passing just today. The beautiful testimonial written by Covert whom I never met,brought tears to my eyes: loving ,touching and poignant. Jan Verderose

Covert. I'm deeply sorry for your loss. Its hard to believe. I thank you and Lynn for including me in your amazing world, as a child (the sky scraper in Ontario wow!). Exposing me to a side of life, I hadn't been previously. It was easy to feel enamored with Lynn. She was everything, and more. May you bask in the beauty of what you two are, and always will be. And, know she has good company in the next dimensions. Your mother, Patty, and her, having an intense discussion about something, or...

Dear Covert, I remember you both very well when you were students at Averill Park High School. I was glad to meet up with you once again at Burden Lake Country Club for a round of golf.
Please accept my sincere condolences.

At four years old Lynn was my first friend, we grew up with an orchard between our homes and would pick flowers for our mothers and tramp though the woods and hills in the area. We would have long talks about a full range of subjects. The most ironic thing was we both showed up with red Corvettes to one an others surprise. it saddens me to hear about our loss of wonderful person.

Dear Mr. Harris - I did not know you or your beloved wife, Lynn, but I want to reach out to comfort you during this painful time. Lynn was a remarkable person and how lucky she was to have had your love throughout her life. I hope the joy of your life together and your love for each other brings you happiness each day. Thank you for sharing the most beautiful tribute I have ever read.

Covert, Lynn was and is a beautiful soul who I looked forward to hearing from any time and seeing every year (she could make 4/15 ok)- she brightened my day with her presence and always made me smile.

I do not know you or your wife, but if we all loved each other as much as you obviously did, what a better world it would be.

Covert... I remember Lynn as a NP at CHP! I was a new grad from Rad Tech school and wow ...Lynn was elegant, brilliant and so very nice.. I was in awe of her!! She will always be highly thought of and remembered ..all my sympathies
